For calloc() and malloc(), the value returned is a pointer to the

This could get pretty confusing if NULL was a valid address...

The seg-fault you get when you de-reference a pointer to NULL
is caused by the kernel. You are attempting to access memory
that has not been mapped into your address space. Once that
memory gets mmap()ed, you will no longer get a seg-fault.
Again, the seg-fault has nothing to do

Sure it helped. We didn't make it mandatory, but new stuff ends up being
written with it, and old stuff _does_ end up being converted to it.
